In the *Mahābhārata*⁶ we find reference to the Vṛkas. The *Matsyapurāṇa* reads Andhakas instead. The Andhakas are intimately associated with the Yādavas and are often referred to in the *Mahābhārata*⁷ but they are known to have been located in Western India or Aparānta. A more correct or better reading seems to be Vṛṣṇikas.
